TV show description:
This thriller TV show is based on the Turkish television series titled Suskunlar and revolves around friendship, love, revenge and the moral dilemma of how far one will go in the pursuit of justice.
In the series, five best friends have a dark secret they thought was buried 25 years ago, but they soon discover that they can’t hide their past forever.
Jackson Brooks (David Lyons) is a successful attorney who seems to have it all. He’s engaged to his boss, Marina (Claire van der Boom), and he’s on the fast track to becoming partner at his firm. His world is turned upside down when his long-lost childhood friends unexpectedly reappear after 25 years.
Years ago, Jackson, Gil Harris (Michael Raymond-James), Shawn Cook (Larenz Tate), and Boots (Derek Phillips) always stuck together, like brothers. They spent their boyhood summers in the small town of Dalton, Texas, swimming in the quarry, shooting bottle rockets and doing everything they could to mine the fun out of small-town life.
But their idyllic world turned chaotic one fateful summer afternoon. A well-intentioned and heroic attempt to save their friend Jessie West (Bre Blair) from her alcoholic mother ultimately cost the 13-year-old boys nine months at Quitman Youth Detention Facility. Their lives were changed forever.
Now 25 years later, the nightmare of the worst nine months of their lives has resurfaced. A mystery even deeper than their buried past is uprooted. The brotherhood must now band together to right the wrongs of their shared past. It’s a journey that will push the limits of their loyalty and ignite in them an unquenchable thirst for revenge.
Other characters include Detective Liz Winters (Deidrie Henry), Warden Ray Carroll (Conor O’Farrell) and Terry Bausch (Demetrius Grosse).

What do you think? Do you like the Game of Silence TV show? Do you think it should have been cancelled or renewed for a second season?
Game of Silence is a good show. I was hooked from the very beginning. NBC should not cancel it. Maybe try another time. Im sure people like this show
We just watched Secrets and yes while similar I
Have to say we enjoy the series far better. The movie I think is kind of slow. While the movie does have major stars it’s just “average”.
For real this was a great new series that everyone I’ve talk to that watch it could not wait till the next week show came on and you’re going to cut it after only one season…Oh wait NBC I know lets air another one of the reality tv shows of the Kardashian then I call the cable company and tell them to just cut off my cable and save me 75 bucks a month….
This show has been wonderful since episode one ! It drew both my husband and I in right away. I’m so disappointed it’s not being renewed. NBC ya blew it! The only other show I watch on NBC is the voice! Bring it back or maybe a better network will take it over!
Great show should be renewed!
Mistake NBC
I think that this is one of the best shows on prime time tv. It’s not the same old hospital, cop or law tv show. I was sucked in with in the first fifteen minutes of the first episode. One season is no where near enough time to determine if the show should continue. I really hope NBC reconsiders this decision or that some other network will pick you it up!
I really liked this series and it got better each week. It should have been given a second season! I don’t understand how some shows are renewed and good shows get cancelled. Please reconsider!!!
Another great NBC series bites the dust! Of course there should have been a Season 2.
Game Of Silence is one of the best shows I have watched. I looked forward to it every week. My family and I say please reconsider and renew. Give it a second chance, please!!!!!
Why are they cancelling this show? This is a great show, and like the others, give it a chance with season 2.
Please bring it back. Its a great show.
loved the show ! Please reconsider canceling
Love this show, so disappointed that it’s been canceled.
